Hi Alan,

So, to post an Image on the forum (and on most of the forums by the way..) :

You first have to put the image on a website. You can use your own one if you have one, or use a Hosting service such as http://imageshack.us/ that give you a webspace for your image. Choose the 640 x 480 resolution max please, as this is easier to read on the forum.

So, you have your Image URL now, something like :

http://mywebsite/imagename.jpg

On the top of the post, click the Img icon, past the image url, and press ALT P on the keyboard or click on the icon again. et voila !

On the screen, you should have someting like this :



Note that on the top of the little screen where you are typing your message, you have a exemple of the function when you click on the icon.

And here you go !

Let me know if you have any difficulties, and i'll do some screenshots

PSS / B 25 "Mitchell" PSS

« on: April 03, 2006, 16:23:13 PM »

So, the biggest PSS in Ireland (yep, that's the biggest ! ) is on it's way !
So far, the fuselage is just waiting for the wings to be covered. The spars were made and glued to the wings and a much lighter elevator has been made as well. So here are the pictures of the fuselage like he was 2 days ago :



Not bad after a week of work !  

So, the next big step for me will be to create the 2 "motors" cowlings and to design a simple system to hold the 2 externals wings panel to the central one.

Keep posted !

Hello there,

The 24th of April is the Annual Cork Glide-in. The only Glider event in Ireland (yet... that may change...  :rolleyes: )
So, I'll go to this event (like every year since I live in Ireland..) with my usual bunch of gliders, but this year, I've plan to build the biggest PSS in Ireland (as far as I know, that will be the biggest) in less than a month ! And a scale one please !

In Fact, this PSS will be a prototype for an electric or IC version, but the PSS will allow me to test the design with no cost. And if this model can fly as a PSS imagine with 2 brushless and lipos or 2 IC motors (for the dirty guys !   )

So now, it's your turn to play and found what is this PSS reproduce. There is a view for connoisseur who can find straight away the model.

The prize will be the printed plans of this model when finished for the first of you who find what it is.


For more photos of the building (but not too much... that will be too easy...  ) go to my website (http://gliderireland.modelisme.com)

Enjoy !

Looks Cool. Whats that DG in the back ground. It looks like it could be a DG 100 or 200. Is the plan you can download from the mount Lenister site for the F-15 already blow up to that size or do you have to do it yourself.

Hey Alan,

Yep, your right, It's a DG100. It's Patrick's glider. You can have more pictures in the gliderireland website. Very light model. Fiberglass fuselage and structural wings.

For the plan I have it at 100%, 120%, 150 %  but basically any size.
I'm at home now, but I have the plan with me. Let me know witch size you want and I'll send you the pdf file.
Or Joe can send you the plan aswell.

Fred
